The energy is unmatched. I was gasping, laughing, near tears, and felt so seen by this show. Roni is a powerhouse I cannot get over how much physicality went into this performance. Truly an interview journey through what it’s like to be on the other side waiting for a text. A must see.... full review

Although the play on the (semi) fictional MADD disease tells you all you need to know about this hilarious point of view, I didn’t expect just how brilliant it would be! Wish I could see it for a second or third time! ... full review
ASSAF MANOR certified reviewer June 15, 2023
Holy moly this show is a rollercoaster! Just in terms of performance, Roni drives the show with impressive levels of energy. Literally. She is exercising throughout the entire show, while telling very vulnerable stories. It's at once awe-inspiring and absurdly hilarious. Roni balances laugh out loud delivery of great comedic material with deep truth in intimate moments. It's incredibly fast moving, but each moment feels lived in and honest, which speaks to both Roni's embodiment of the character and Nico Fife's sleek directing. In terms of the content, Roni taps into our collective neuroses, mining our most pathetic, embarrassing impulses and holding a mirror up to them. What is motivating some of the most successful people you know? Do w... full review

A high-energy, fun, and fabulous time! Roni has a contagious energy, and her stamina for performing while exercising and talking a mile-a-minute is honestly superhuman. This show felt very polished and well-directed, and the world Roni creates is distinct and full of comedic possibility. As a lesbian, I was surprised by just how much I related to the show's "boy-crazy" themes; through stories of her own experiences, Roni has crafted a show that speaks to the universally human desire to be loved and acknowledged. This show is fun, funny, and an all-around great time. ... full review

This show was a total blast! Roni's performance is frantic and hilarious, the writing is sharp, and the concept is really strong. You'll get your bang for your buck! The joke-per-minute ratio on this thing is insane -- I've seen few performers as active as Roni. Treat yourself to a showing! ... full review

A fantastic show, well paced, and filled with talent. Our star is so engrossing that it felt shorter than it was. ... full review

WOW what a spectacular show! I was impressed by everything from the set design to Roni's deft multitasking on stage to her vulnerability in sharing her experiences. She had the audience laughing out loud one moment and gasping in shock the next. What a fun and talented performer to watch!... full review
